The
first third of the year is gone now. If one of your New Year's resolutions was to explore alternative
career options and you have not even started yet, you had better get going. Sorting through all the
friendly advice online, around the office, and at the bowling alley can be rough, so I have taken the
liberty of finding a few for you. One article admonishes you not to be a
Sisyphus.
A sissy-what? If you're not up on Greek mythology, this will educate you. One person's yard in my neighborhood
has a concrete artsy-fartsy thing on the lawn that I refer to as a monument to Sisyphus
(see photo). It probably has some other obvious meaning that my Philistine-level
knowledge of art is missing.
